The 10th season of TUF just started so I guess lets talk about it here. The teams are Rashad: James McSweeney, Brendan Schaub, Justin Wren, Jon Madsen, Roy Nelson, Darrill Schoonover, Matt Mitrione, Mike Wessel
Rampage: Kimbo Slice, Abe Wagner, Dimico, Wes Sims, Scott Junk, Wes Shivers, Marcus Jones, Zak Jensen
My quick meaningless analysis is that the only person worth being picked on Rampages team was Scott Junk. And I only say that because I think he might be the hungriest fighter in the house.
Ep 1s fight was Jon Madsen fucking up Abe Wagner for 10 minutes. Like to the point where it looked like it disgusted some of Madsen's own team mates. As long as Rampage has people without ground game left on his team Madsen will probably eat them alive.
Here are my thoughts on tonights ep.
-Rampage is a fucking idiot. He picks all the big fighters and then the smallest guy in the house dominates one of them.
-Calling Roy Nelson names? If there is one person that I know can hang with Rampage its Nelson.
-Just Rampages general disrespect towards people that weren't Kimbo got to me a little.
-Speaking of Kimbo, he kinda came off as a class act. I want Kimbo to win the first round just so Madsen can fuck him up.
-Rashad Evans came off as a cool dude.
-I hope I get to see Wes Simms eat his fucking teeth.

I was almost nervous Abe was going to die from blood loss! That was brutal!

You could see Abe's skull! How crazy is that shit? I didn't even know that was a thing you could do from punches with padded hands!

I was honestly VERY surprised the ref didn't stop the fight. I mean, it's one thing to be busted open and just have a gash that bleeds heavily like in wrestling or have a gash over your eye that blinds you causing the ref to end the fight. But his entire arm was completely crimson! You actually saw it pouring out of his head onto the mat. I guess the point I'm getting at is, how much blood do you need to lose from a gash on the head to stop a fight?
Also, how did the fight exactly end Naitch? I know Madsen won but my dvr cut off at the beginning of the second round. I do have to give Abe a hell of a lot of credit for not panicking, b1tching, or giving up. I would have probably passed right the fuck out if I saw blood like that leaving my body
And yes, I agree, Rampage is a fuckin moron. He's probably by far the worst TUF coach to date. You can tell Rashad knew what he was doing when he picked his teams. Right off the bat when Quinton picked Jon Madsen to fight Abe Wagner, Rashad said, "you just picked my best wrestler to fight your guy with no ground game. Thank you!"
Team Rashad is running right the fuck away with this competition.
One thing I was surprised about though was that Rampage said he was the only guy to beat Frank Mir twice. Mir must have had a couple of off nights. Rampage is good but overrated. Actually, it's more like you said, he's just stupid. If he was smarter he'd be 10x better of a fighter
Rashad is good. I knew he had potential on TUF when he was a competitor but I honestly didn't see it coming with him being so dominant. The guy proved a lot of people wrong

Abe won by decision. For some reason the ref let it go another five minutes. What you missed was the ref stand them up four times and Jon take Abe down four times. Rampage got so pissed he walked off with 15 seconds left on the fight. After the fight the doctor told Abe he could see his skull.
It was Wes Simms that said he beat Mir twice. He then also said he will never let the truth get in the way of a good story. So he was lying.
Also when they had the Come this season video package they should Rampage destroying a door. I can't wait to see what provokes that.

Well, Madsen won but I know what you meant
I want to see how a lot of that "What's to come" goes down. Even that one scene, "hit me b1tch!" It looks like some cool drama is going down this season

I read an interview with Wes Simms and he said all the drama starts escalating at they're third week at the house. When everyone starts getting restless.

I'm guessing towards the end of October is when the shit hits the fan. I meant three weeks of them being filmed not the actual showing of weeks.
Also Champ, Rampage officially quit UFC today. So no Evans vs Rampage. Its to bed because I was already psyched to see Evans fuck up Jackson.

Yeah dude no shit! You can find a pretty good synopsis of everything over at bleacher report.com.
Also, next week KIMBO vs ROY FUCKING NELSON! Roy's my favorite to win it all so expect a pissed off Rampage! Roy is a dude with a bunch of experience and I'm surprised he actually needed this show to get to UFC.

James McSweeney pissed me the fuck off in that fight. There were so many times Wes Shivers just put his guard down and gave up and James just stood there and stared at him. I totally felt Rashad's anger when he was screaming don't let up!
The way I see that fight is, I don't know what the fuck was McSweeney's problem. He's the #1 pick and a lot of hype and seems like he's got the heart for it, but didn't deliver. Also, if Wes was actually in shape and experienced, he's so fuckin big and hard to combat, he could actually be tough to beat down the road if he doesn't give up. He seems like a cool dude but doesn't seem to have the heart when you hear him speak. bottom line, McSweeney should have killed Wes once he(Wes) got tired. t was a disappointing fight by both men. It was almost like both men deserved to lose
Also, you're so right that Rampage is such a fuckin idiot. He actually admitted to picking McSweeney first, not out of strategy, but as a fuck you to Rashad if he could get McSweeney beat. Fuckin dumbass. If Wes won Rampage would have been flat out LUCKY. He almost did luck out too because McSweeney just stood there like a deer in headlights half the time
Unfortunately Roy's hard to coach. A guy like that will have a problem no matter how talented he is. Kimbo seems like a total pro. I give him credit for coming into the competition so humble to learn and doesn't care he's a target. I think Kimbo could be much better if he continues to work with pros for a few more years

I'm not saying I'm right about Roy winning it, he was just my pick since I read who is going to be in it. I'm going to stick with my guns on this one. I'll agree with you about Kimbo. He is a total pro and wants it. And if he was taking on Abe I would give it to Kimbo. But with the three fights I've seen out of Roy I just know the guy is good enough to take Kimbo to the limit. He won't stand and bang with Kimbo like Tank Abbott did. Everyone has seen Kimbo fights, we have hardly seen other peoples fights.
McSweeny look gassed out to. If you don't gas it looks easy to finish off McSweeny if you have a good stand up game.

I'm just excited about the fight next week. I'm interested to see how Kimbo does against someone who doesn't suck. I was afraid his first UFC fight, in general, would be against someone gay

I made my decision. I like Kimbo. The dude has a great attitude. I'm actually pulling for him to get better because he clearly wants it and isn't in it for the money. That's the kind of guy I like to support. Sure he had that overrated hype and a lot of people, including myself, wanted to see him get knocked the fuck out. I think I was imagining him being a cocky arrogant asshole. But that's SO not the case at all!
I want him to get a second chance. Roy Nelson just knows the game better. You can tell 100% that Roy beat him on pure experience alone. The fat bastard is in much better shape than he looks. But if he can lose 60lbs and get down to 205 and stay in the heavyweight class, his speed would pick up, his endurance would pick up, and he'd be that much more dangerous
The irony of it though is if you saw this fat pasty hick and this superjacked mean looking black dude about to square off, you'd pray for Roy's life. Can't go by appearance
